This is the first dictionary of new words (occasionalisms) made up by the great Russian poet V.V. Maiakovskii. According to the author of this dictionary, occasionalism is not a distortion of the language but rather a pun which will not necessarily become a new word.
This is one of the first attempts to collect occasionalisms of one author, poet V. Maiakovskii. Occasionalism, unlike an invented word, is rather a pun, a joke that does not claim to be included in academic dictionaries.
The next volume in the series The Russian Way contains literary criticism and memoirs about one of the greatest Russian poets, Vladimir Maiakovskii (1893-1930) by: N. Aseev, D. Burliuk, K. Chukovskii, Don-Aminado, B.
